FAQ
===
Q: What is Insurrection 1776?
A: Insurrection 1776 is a modification for Battlefield 2 set during the Revolutionary War that uses 18th century style combat. We used to be a Battlefield Vietnam mod, and our latest BFV release is still available in the downloads section of the site.
Q: What's unique about Insurrection 1776?
A: Insurrection is far from your standard "replace all weapons and vehicles with new weapons and vehicles" type of mod. Visit the info section of this site to see the full list of changes we've made or still plan on making. 18th century combat is a totally unique kind of gameplay that can't be compared with any other FPS on the market.
Q: How far into development is Insurrection?
A: We currently have a public alpha release 0.3b for Battlefield Vietnam, and we are now working on the first release for Battlefield 2. The latest version has full infantry combat, artillery and forts with early versions of ships and horses.
Q: Am I going to have to spend 5 minutes reloading between shots?
A: We want to balance realism and gameplay as well as possible. Revolutionary War style combat is unique in that the firearms were very limited with a rate of fire of 3-4 shots per minute, and battles ending in melee combat with bayonets was not an uncommon occurance. We want to try and capture the feel of this era of warfare by limiting the rifles to a very low firing rate. Also, damage is much higher than it is in Battlefield Vietnam, so it will normally take no more than one shot to kill an enemy. However, the bottom line is that we intend for melee combat to be more than just a last resort. Your bayonet should see a lot of action in Insurrection 1776.

The Insurrection 1776 mod team is now accepting new applications.
Insurrection 1776 is an American Revolutionary War based Battlefield 2 modification that features an entirely different style of gameplay.
Unfortunately, many of our developers no longer have the time required to devote to this project, and without new members in our team new releases will be few and far apart.
We are currently most in need of people who can efficiently port models and their skins from BF:V into BF2. Experienced skinners and those with Python coding experience are also invited to apply for the team.
We will gladly consider adding people in other areas of expertise as well. Devotion and being able to work as a team are the most important requirements for joining us.
Beta testers will be needed in the future, but we prefer to focus on our first release at this point in time.

Dead.
man this sucks, they need to bring this mod back to life, this wus great
when!?
will there be navel maps
ARE U CRAZY how can the high damage be good? the range of the guns should be limited same with the accuracy... BUT back then they had soft lead balls that expanded when shot. You would have a 3 inch hole going in and a 2 foot hole going out, if you were hit you had a 90% chance of dying the other 10% usually was in the foot or hand, if u got hit in the arm it would tear it off! so u know, the high damage is good but u have to balance that with poor accuracy and poor range
looks like a blasty
if its ny beter than the battle grounds 1 and 2 for the source engine (which it sounds like it is) then i will fo sho downlo ed it
this looks really good!
I see Battlegrounds for Half-Life all over again... The high damage thing I dont think is right because guns were less powerful in the 1700's although, of course, it still hurt and probably disabled u in te same way. I feel that that factor ruins the Realism AND the Gameplay. Otherwise, I looked at the info section on the website, and I love it.
